Benoit Droin Chablis Grand Cru 'Vaudesir' 2022

Note: from a 1.02 ha parcel.

The 2022 Chablis Vaud?sir Grand Cru is very fragrant on the nose with white peach, white chocolate and hints of wet stone scents, like a Vaillons-plus. The palate is well defined, taut and fresh, with crisp acidity and good depth, but it starts to clam up towards the finish. Patience will be rewarded, but there is no doubting the calibre of this Grand Cru.? 92-94 points ? Neal Martin.
